Emeraldpaw's POV

Emeraldpaw stretched in annoyance at the sound of a cat yowling. I swear if that's Brightkit, She is gonna find ants in her nest come moonhigh." She muttered under her breath.

"You wouldn't do that." Smokepaw said with a chuckle as he started to groom herself.

"Wanna bet?" Emeraldpaw asked.

"Come on, Emmy. Lighten up." Yellowpaw said with a chuckle causing her to roll her eyes and flick her tail under his nose.

"You were asking for that one, Yellowpaw." Icepaw teased with a small laugh causing Emeraldpaw And Starpaw to laugh as they scrambled out of the apprentices den.

Icepaw, Desolatepaw, Yellowpaw, and Smokepaw followed them.

Out in the clearing Emeraldpaw was surprised to see 3 shadowclan cats siting in camp. She unsheathed her claws and flattened her ears, stalking towards them. "What are you three fox hearts doing in our camp." She hissed.

"Emeraldpaw!" Yewstep, Emeraldpaw's mentor hissed. "Get back here and listen to what Lionstar has to say!" She snapped.

Emeraldpaw gave the shadowclan cats one last venomous glare before stalking over to sit in between Icepaw and Yellowpaw. Starpaw was on Icepaws other side and on Yellowpaw's other side Smokepaw sat with his ears perked up and his left eye fixed on the shadowclan warriors. Desolatepaw sat on the other side of him glancing up at Lionstar in confusion every few moments. Emeraldpaw narowed her eyes and realized that she recognized two of the Shadowclan cats. One of them, was hard not to recognize with her black pelt and blue eyes. She recognized her as Nightrain, the Shadowclan deputy. Beside her was Rainsong who was whispering something into Nightrains ear. On the other side of Nightrain a tall light brown tabby to sat staring at her and Smokepaw. He had black striped that ran down his flank and tail and sharp piercing yellow eyes that unnerved her.

"Silence!" Lionstar booming voice echoed around the clearing. Emeraldpaw shared a glance with Icepaw who just shrugged. "I know many of you may be wondering why these three Shadowclan cats have made entrance into our clan. Nightrain. Come up here and tell us what brings you here." Lionstar ordered.

"Lionstar, this is not for me to share. Tigerstripe." She beckoned to the tom on her right side. "Go on. Tell them what we're here for." The tom, who Emeraldpaw now knew was named 'Tigerstripe', Jumped up onto the highrock and glared at the Thunderclanners. His glare rested on Doveflight and Emeraldpaw's confusing grew as she gave the Shadowclan tom a pleading look.

"I have come here in regards to two of your apprentices. I believe their names are Emeraldpaw and Smokepaw. You all believe that a tom in Thunderclan is their father. But the ruth is, you believe a lie!" He snarled. "I am their Father. And it is only right for them to come and live with me in shadowclan." Yowls of outrage filled the clearing and Emeraldpaw had to dig her claws into the ground to stop herself from wiping that smug look off of his face.

"I understand this comes as a shock to you and as a courtesy to those of you who will grieve, I will only take on of my kits with me." He declared.

"Please don't do this, Tigerstripe!" Doveflight begged. Emeraldpaw whipped around to glare at her mother.

"Your not even going to deny it?" She hissed. "That smug foxheart is my father? I'm half Shadowclan? How can that be!?" She demanded.

Doveflight sighed. "I wanted you two to grow up without feeling any different from your clanmates." She wailed.

"I've decided I will take my son." He said and without warning he jumped down and herded Smokepaw towards the camp entrance. Smokepaw quickly darted over to Emeraldpaw and rubbed his muzzle against hers.

"I will see you again." He whispered in her ear before walking slowly back towards her father with his head and tail down.

Smokepaw's POV

He snarled at Tigerstripe every time he touched him causing him to chuckle and praise him. It wasn't long before he was ead into the shadowclan camp. His new home.

"Look mother! A real Thunderclan cat." A puredark brown tabby tom bounced over to him and stared up at him.

"He's a shadowclan cat now, Darkkit." A small orange tom with jay blue eyes snorted as he followed his littermate over to Smokepaw and started to circle him.

"Toms!" An annoyed voice sounded from behind them and a pure white she-cat with rosy colored eyes scoffed as she padded over to him. "Tigerstripe told us about you. What happened to your face?"

"Heartkit! Don't be rude. Jaykit, don't attack his tail!" A black furred tabby with white paws and green eyes scolded as she came up and herded them away from him.

"But he doesn't miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiind." Heartkit whined.

Smokepaw narrowed his eyes. "I was attacked by a fox my first day a an apprentice." He nsarled before spinning around to glare at his father. "Why would you want to take me?" He snapped.

"Your my son. I don't much care for she-cats." He scoffed. "Get some sleep. Mudpaw will show you where the apprentices den is and where your nest is. You will be assigned a mentor tomorrow." He said with a smile. Smokepaw narrowed his eyes before snarling and following the Siamese tom that came over to him.

"You cn have the empty nest next to mine." Mudpaw offered with a smile.

"Thanks." Smokepaw growled as he sunk into the nest and soon fell asleep.

Emeraldpaw's POV

That night Emeraldpaw couldn't sleep without Smokepaw beside her. She kept tossing and turning until Dawn when she offered to do the Dawn patrol instead of Icepaw.

She passed the Shadowclan border and looked deep into the trees. There was not one single willow tree in that forest. Smokepaw loved willow trees.

"He'll be fine." Yewstep told her gently.

"But...he'll never settle in! He's been in Thunderclan all his life. How will he ever fit in?"

Smokepaw's POV

Smokepaw smirked as he stretched. Knowing Shadowclan he would probably be taught how to fight first. Good. He couldn't wait to sink his claws into his father smug face. "Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather beneath the high tree for a clan meeting." Shatteredstar's dark voice echoed around the pine trees.

"Smokepaw arrived yesterday and we welcome him. But he is in need of a mentor. Shadowclaw, you are ready for another apprentice. You trained Tigerstripe well and I trust you will do the same for Smokepaw. This meeting is over." Smokepaw glared up at Shadowclaw.

"We will be doing hunting practice. You need to know how to hunt in pines." Shadowclaw growled. Smokepaw unsheathed his claws and dug them into the ground before reluctantly following his mentor.

'This should be interesting.' He thought.
